<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p style="text-align:justify;">Italian challenger to the BMW R1200GS? I suspect this will be bought by those who think they want to tour the World rather than those who actually do. If my life is going to depend on a bike, I know I&#8217;d rather it be a proven BMW. Having said that, this might be an interesting proposition for those who are not going to venture off the beaten track.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><img src="http://dryohe.files.wordpress.com/2009/11/112809_1628_southcaroli11.png" alt="" /><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:12pt;"><br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:12pt;">One of the nice things about not having a fixed schedule is being able to decide to hang around place for a while if you decide you like it. Santa Fe is that kind of place. I woke up early in the Marriott, showered, and packed my gear. I rode over to the Santa Fe KOA and checked in. I have a love/hate relationship with KOA. They are usually very well run and have immaculately clean facilities – bathrooms especially. KOA&#8217;s however are designed to cater to the RV crowd, not the leather clad long distance biker. They usually greet motorcyclists with bewildered looks, suspicion or downright hostility. We are the bottom of the KOA chain second only to cross country bicyclists. I paid for two nights and was given directions to my Kampsite. I rode over and setup camp. Desert camping has its own set of challenges which mostly revolve around shade, dust, and more dust. Thankfully the weather on October was pleasant if a bit cold in the evenings. My only real worry was rain forecast for the next day and night.<br />
</span></p>
<p><img src="http://dryohe.files.wordpress.com/2009/11/112809_1628_southcaroli21.jpg" alt="" /><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:12pt;"><br />
</span></p>
<p><img src="http://dryohe.files.wordpress.com/2009/11/112809_1628_southcaroli31.jpg" alt="" /><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:12pt;"><br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:12pt;">Today I planned to visit the Bradbury Science Museum in Los Alamos and check out whatever else Los Alamos had to offer. The to Los Alamos was good but there was a ton of stop and go traffic through Santa Fe. Closer to Los Alamos the road opened up and I crossed the Rio Grande and started to climb through the canyons. There were several sweepers and turns as the road went higher. The last few miles were absolutely gorgeous and the road offered even tighter turns.<br />
</span></p>
<p><img src="http://dryohe.files.wordpress.com/2009/11/112809_1628_southcaroli41.jpg" alt="" /><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:12pt;"><br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:12pt;">I can see why they put the nascent nuclear program out here – it&#8217;s in the middle of nowhere but they do have a Starbucks. I found the museum and went in and almost immediately came back out through the double doors. It was dull, it was un-interesting, and it was a friggin joke. That&#8217;s it for the start of weapons of Armageddon?<br />
</span></p>
<p><img src="http://dryohe.files.wordpress.com/2009/11/112809_1628_southcaroli51.jpg" alt="" /><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:12pt;"><br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:12pt;">I wandered around the town for a bit. One interesting thing was the duck pond/swimming area. A &#8220;Cement Pond&#8221; to quote Jed Clampett. It looked like an excellent place to relax after a day of working on WMD&#8217;s. It was lunch time and I was hungry. On the ride up I passed a portable BBQ truck. The bed of the tow vehicle was piled high with split hardwood and I think that usually separates the good ones from the bad ones. If you are hauling a chord of wood around AND the BBQ facility up winding mountain roads in the middle of the New Mexico dessert you must care about your product. Kenny&#8217;s North Carolina BBQ is definitely a place that CARES about what comes out of their portable kitchen. Love the flaming pig logo.<br />
</span></p>
<p><img src="http://dryohe.files.wordpress.com/2009/11/112809_1628_southcaroli61.jpg" alt="" /><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:12pt;"><br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:12pt;">Good stuff. I felt like a cannibal at a plane crash. They were a bit stingy with the napkins and by the end of the meal I looked like a baby eating beans – a sticky, BBQ sauce covered idiot with a grin the size of Texas. Thankfully for me there was a gas station next door and I was able to wash my face and hands. The grin however, stayed with me for the rest of the day. There is something about finding these out of the way places that just makes the food that much better and this was no exception.<br />
</span></p>
<p><img src="http://dryohe.files.wordpress.com/2009/11/112809_1628_southcaroli71.jpg" alt="" /><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:12pt;"><br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:12pt;">Back on the bike, gloves yanked tight, leather zipped up and a blasting down the canyon I go. I&#8217;m heading back to town to get some supplies for the camp. Back in Santa Fe I hit the grocery store and pickup water, Mount Gay Rum, tonic, limes, ice and a few snacks.<br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:12pt;">The Cowgirl Hall of Fame<br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:12pt;">This place is absolutely a tourist trap but a good one with lots of locals who are easy to talk to and are interesting. I meet a heavyset grizzled hippy type guy who tells me that he is going to participate in a reality TV show about a group of &#8220;groovers&#8221; who are in-line skating across the USA. &#8220;It&#8217;s a sort of The Hills meets Survivor meets Melrose Place&#8221; he says. I don&#8217;t know what The Hills and don&#8217;t watch Survivor but I vaguely remember Melrose. Let me tell you it&#8217;s hard to come up with much more than &#8220;aaaaaaaaaaaaaah, that sounds interesting&#8221; as a reply to something like that. We get to talking and here is yet another character who claims to be recently divorced from a woman who took &#8220;several million&#8221; in the settlement but has the outward appearance of someone who would be hard pressed cover his bar tab and have enough gas money to fuel his Microbus. Maybe it&#8217;s the New Yorker/Banker in me but I regard everything that comes out of his mouth as bullshit – but we have a good conversation anyway – I buy the beers. I&#8217;m here mostly as a friend of mine has a friend here who works at the bar and is supposed to be gorgeous. Think a 20 year old Karen Allen or a 30 year Miley Sirus – your choice. Heather is her name and she is indeed very easy to look at. We chat for a while and she gives me a list of places to see from a local perspective. We try to match our schedules to go out together to see the town. She picks me dinner and it is very good, better than I was expecting at a place like this. I say my goodbye for the evening and say we&#8217;ll catch up tomorrow. The ride back is very nice if a bit cool.<br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:12pt;">Back at camp I clean the chain, organize some gear and take a few notes on the last couple of days. I also break out the rum and mix the sailor&#8217;s cocktail, a Mount Gay and Tonic with lime. When the booze comes out I&#8217;m off the bike for the evening. I buy firewood at $8.00 a bundle for the evening fire.<br />
</span></p>
<p><img src="http://dryohe.files.wordpress.com/2009/11/112809_1628_southcaroli81.jpg" alt="" /><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:12pt;"><br />

</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:12pt;">I end the day with a roaring fire under absolutely beautiful Santa Fe stars. The moon is peaking out through the clouds and I chat for a while with nearby campers who are doing a similar drive around America but in a cage. They both work at a resort hotel in the Cayman Islands and we compare notes on where I&#8217;ve been and where they&#8217;ve been. It&#8217;s good because they are heading east and I&#8217;m heading west and south. Soon after I head to bed and sleep very well under the stars.<br />

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>If nothing else, N-Dubz new single &#8216;<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8_96uyfmqgo">I Need You</a>&#8216; will serve as a mind-blowing monument to the technological advances of the past decade, even the past few years with lines like &#8216;I been searching all over <a href="http://www.facebook.com/">Facebook</a>, but I can&#8217;t seem to find you.&#8217;</p>
<p><span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/ZI6I5xWoA5o&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' /><param name='allowfullscreen' value='true' /><param name='wmode' value='transparent' /><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/ZI6I5xWoA5o&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' allowfullscreen='true' width='425' height='350' wmode='transparent'></embed></object></span></p>
<p>And I&#8217;m sure that&#8217;s really meaningful too, because everything this ridiculous cartoon vision of hip-hop music does is serious, serious stuff.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m pretty certain they don&#8217;t give a shit what people think of their lyrics, just as well because they&#8217;re stupid, what one reviewer called &#8216;unwittingly hilarious.&#8217;</p>
<p>In amongst this tale of heartbreak and alienation you&#8217;d be hard-pressed not to stifle a laugh at lines like: &#8216;I&#8217;m pissed I never took your number.&#8217;</p>
<p>The idea that they were ever underground is ludicrous, they&#8217;re so commercial they should come with a price tag and nutritional information attached.</p>
<p>Just listen to the lyrics, watch the stupid video. It&#8217;s all about money and lacking self-awareness, mo&#8217; money mo&#8217; ego.</p>
<p>The first 10 seconds of the video feature a <a href="http://www.lamborghini.co.uk/">Lamborghini</a>, a <a href="http://www.ducati.com/">Ducati</a> and a Helicopter with the &#8216;N-Dubz&#8217; logo on it. Case closed.</p>
<p>They mean nothing, they just exist. They are an existential quandary that could confound <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albert_Camus">Albert Camus</a>.</p>
<p>But I suppose this is just the inevitable way forward for British hip-hop; that it would become shinier and cleaner until you would no longer be using words like &#8216;grime&#8217; to describe it. Thanks a lot <a href="http://www.domestos.co.uk/">Domestos</a>.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:12pt;">October 4, 2009 – 288 Miles<br />
</span></p>
<p><img src="http://dryohe.files.wordpress.com/2009/11/112709_1534_blueskieshi11.png"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:12pt;"><br />
		</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:12pt;">I woke up this morning with a headache that was made infinitely worse by the fact that it was raining and I&#8217;m quite sick of yellow hotel rooms.   I put on the weather channel, took some asprin and jumped in the shower.  By the time I was packed and dressed my headache had gone away and my spirits were improving as the I-Phone radar app (I use Accuweather) showed clear skies into New Mexico.  This was going to be a short ride today less than 300 miles.  The La Quinta breakfast was a joke but they had hard boiled eggs which I was strangely attracted to and ate two with some low fat yogurt.  All I need now is a confined space like an elevator or airplane!<br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:12pt;">I got gas for the bike and hit the road.  Rolling into New Mexico the vistas opened up and the weather changed from rain in the morning, to cloudy mid-morning, to blue skies in the afternoon.  You can see the distant mountains, the sky is a deep indigo blue and just about everyone driving there rolls along at a very high speed.  I was blown off the road by a Ford F-250 pulling a car trailer who I estimate was doing at least 120.  He was passing everyone in sight.  I hung back and observed him for a while.  While driving really fast he was making clean passes and had New Mexico plates so I assumed he knew the road (not that it made much of a difference as it was completely straight for most of the way) I decided to kick up the pace and use him as my New Mexico PD spotter.  I don&#8217;t use a radar detector for a number of reasons.  I don&#8217;t think you can hear the thing when you need to or necessarily see it either.  I had an Escort mounted to my Ninja 1000-R in college and I can&#8217;t remember it being useful very often.  In those adrenaline addled days I&#8217;m not sure if I paid any attention to it anyway.  Mostly it looked cool &#8211; until it fell off at speed and disintegrated.  Mostly I roll with the traffic letting people get out in front of me far enough so they would be the first to be spotted by LEO&#8217;s.  If I&#8217;m alone on an empty highway my speed is between six and ten miles over the speed limit as I figure most cops can&#8217;t be bothered to pull me over as it&#8217;s not enough to generate a significant fine.  Where I absolutely do watch my speed very closely is any little town.  As I&#8217;m sure you well know they mean 35 MPH and are glad to pull over anyone going faster.<br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:12pt;">A ramdon rest area somewhere in New Mexico.  The picture does not really capture how pretty this area was. The view was fantastic.<br />
</span></p>
<p><img src="http://dryohe.files.wordpress.com/2009/11/112709_1534_blueskieshi21.jpg"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:12pt;"><br />
		</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:12pt;">Futura loaded and ready to go.  I&#8217;m not one of those guys with stuff hanging all over the place.  I want everything stowed and packed neatly.  I saw this HD boomer so loaded up with crap the tires were almost flat.  Lighter is better (and faster).<br />
</span></p>
<p><img src="http://dryohe.files.wordpress.com/2009/11/112709_1534_blueskieshi31.jpg"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:12pt;"><br />
		</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:12pt;">I arrived in Santa Fe and checked into another Marriott Courtyard.  This one was not as nice as the one in Wichita but acceptable.  At this point I was still behind the planning ball as ditching my routes and plans for South Dakota I was flying by the seat of my pants.  I really wanted to slow down the cash burn and start camping to save money.   I unloaded the bike and headed to downtown Santa Fe.  Surprisingly for having a great deal of slow moving heavy traffic I managed to immediately find a parking spot and shut down the Futura.  The skies in Santa Fe are amazingly blue and the air is clean and crisp.  My mood was considerably improved since morning.  You can&#8217;t take a bad picture in this town. Everything is beautiful and seems to be sharply focused.  I guess it&#8217;s the sky contrasting against the adobe.<br />
</span></p>
<p><img src="http://dryohe.files.wordpress.com/2009/11/112709_1534_blueskieshi41.jpg"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:12pt;"><br />
		</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:12pt;">It&#8217;s no surprise that Santa Fe is an artist&#8217;s paradise.  Everywhere you turn in Santa Fe you are surrounded by paintings, sculpture, jewelry, fashion, and art of every imaginable sort.  The Indian Market is interesting as there are a large number of Native Americans displaying their crafts; all laid out on everything from velvet jewelry blankets to worn Indian blankets.  No Ducati T-Shirts, no carbon fiber tank protectors, no…………ahh, you get the idea.  Turquoise jewelry, silver earrings and the like don&#8217;t interest me much.  There are however, tons of shops downtown; it&#8217;s easy to kill a few hours browsing or window shopping.  One thing I like about this type of traveling is that it is virtually impossible to make an impulse buy.  Every inch of space is accounted for on the bike.  If I want to buy something to take with me usually something else has to go.  One of the better attractions in downtown Santa Fe is the St. Francis Cathedral.  According to Lonely Planet it has the oldest Madonna statue in North America, er……… wow.  However it is worth taking a look, the front doors are cool and the interior is very interesting.<br />

<p><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:12pt;">Now that I&#8217;ve had my fix of art and religion for the day, it&#8217;s time for a drink.  One place that I really enjoyed was the <a href="http://www.lafondasantafe.com">La Fonda</a> Hotel.  It&#8217;s in the plaza in the center of Santa Fe and looks like it&#8217;s been there for a million years. The lobby is very cool with places to relax, have a cocktail or dinner. They also had a small shop that sold the New York Times.  Surprisingly this is something that I guess being an Ex-New Yorker is absorbed through contact over the years.  I absolutely crave an occasional daily read and demand the Sunday paper which is usually read outside with a Perdomo Habano Gordo cigar and a tall glass of ice tea.  So paper in hand I went up the elevator to the 6<sup>th</sup> floor and the roof top bar.  What a fantastic view.  I ordered a Diet Coke, grabbed a seat to relax, read, and enjoy the view.  Apparently this is the place for sunsets in Santa Fe.  It&#8217;s also the place for bullshit too.  Across from me was an older guy dressed in denim from head to toe, cowboy boots and a big cowboy hat.  He had one of those booming, self-important voices and he was loudly pontificating to a pair of cringing German tourists.  <em>&#8220;I&#8217;m a movie stuntman &#8211; I just bought a 7 million dollar house here, gave the last one to my ex-wife,  she was fucking Jack  and Warren, driving my truck today because the Veyron is in the shop, too many goddammned people with money in this town….. </em>On and on and on this guy went.  I wish I had an extra pair of earplugs.  I was tempted to roll up the newspaper and clout him upside the head with it just to get some peace and quiet.  But it was a beautiful afternoon and I was in a fantastic place so I just moved my chair away to get a better view and relax.<br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:12pt;">I climbed back on the Aprilia and headed out of downtown back to the hotel.  The prices at hotel restaurant were insane and my spending at this point was way out of control.  So I walked down the street, past used car dealers, the Home Depot, Walgreens, and other anywhere in America type stuff to Arby&#8217;s.  I grabbed dinner and headed back to the hotel.  That night I took some time to consult the guide book, map and GPS to figure out a new route and get down to some camping.  I found a KOA that was only a few miles out of Santa Fe and booked a two night stay online. One thing about KOA is that they charge you extra if you just show up – they want you to book online entirely.  Having the next few day set I crashed out for the night.<br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:12pt;"><strong>Tomorrow – Santa Fe, Los Alamos, kickass BBQ, the Cowgirl Hall of Fame, and KOA</strong><br />

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><a href="http://geeketto.files.wordpress.com/2009/11/image38.png"><img style="border-bottom:0;border-left:0;display:inline;border-top:0;border-right:0;margin:0 5px 0 0;" title="image" border="0" alt="image" align="left" src="http://geeketto.files.wordpress.com/2009/11/image_thumb38.png?w=244&#038;h=168" width="244" height="168" /></a> </p>
<p>Il litio è il materiale che negli ultimi anni ha rivoluzionato il concetto di batteria, per durata , capacità e caratteristiche di ricarica.</p>
<p>Ben tutti conosciamo gli enormi vantaggi che il litio ha apportato nei telefonini che utilizziamo tutti i giorni.</p>
<p>La Porsche ha ben pensato di dotare i suoi nuovi modelli sportivi di una particolare batteria auto sviluppata mediante l’impiego del litio in sostituzione alle più storiche e pesanti batterie al piombo o al gel.</p>
<p>I vantaggi ci sono tutti :</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Minor ingombro</strong>      <br />Conservando le stesse dimensioni superficiali (larghezza e lunghezza)      <br />riduce il suo ingombro di profondità, consentendone un più facile e accessibile alloggiamento.</li>
<li><strong>Riduzione di peso</strong>      <br />La ditta costruttrice dichiara un risparmio di peso … fino a 10Kg !!!</li>
<li><strong>Maggior spunto in accensione       <br /></strong>La tecnologia al litio garantisce ottime performance di erogazione della corrente</li>
<li><strong>Stessa Capacità       <br /></strong>A oggi il modello utilizzato di Porsche si attesta a 18Ah</li>
<li><strong>Maggior Durata       <br /></strong>L’azienda produttrice garantisce che la vita della batteria è stata triplicata      <br /> rispetto alle convenzionali batterie al piombo.</li>
</ul>
<p>Sono presupposti che fanno molta gola alle case produttrici di automobili sportive,   <br />e così Porsche ha dichiarato a sorpresa che questa nuova batteria potrà essere richiesta come optional sui modelli : 911 GT3, 911 GT3 RS e Boxster Spyder.</p>
<p><strong>PREZZO 1.900€</strong>    <br />Ma se puoi permetterti una Porsche non sarà certo il prezzo a fermarti</p>
<p>Peccato che il prezzo sia alto … devo confessarvi che è da un anno che cerco una batteria al litio con le caratteristiche analoghe alle batterie per moto …   <br />… ma nulla, non avevo mai trovato nulla !</p>
<p>Per questo mi ha colpito questa notizia … non ero il solo ad avere questo desiderio,   <br />e oggi ho capito che avrei risparmiato 10Kg </p>
<p>Spero che i prezzi raggiungano traguardi più accettabili,   <br />in questo modo sulla mia Ducati potrò risparmiare 10kg di peso     <br />e avere un nuovo vano portaoggetti</p>

<description><![CDATA[Seconda vittoria stagionale per lui e 2009 che va in cantiere non senza colpi di scena. Daniel Pedro]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p style="margin-bottom:0;"><span style="font-family:Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size:x-small;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1912" title="pedrosa valencia" src="http://motoranto.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/pedrosa-valencia.jpg" alt="" width="460" height="282" /><br />
Seconda vittoria stagionale per lui e 2009 che va in cantiere non senza colpi di scena. Daniel <strong>Pedrosa </strong>vince il GP della Comunità Valenciana davanti a Valentino <strong>Rossi </strong>e a Jorge <strong>Lorenzo</strong>.<br />
E&#8217; la seconda vittoria stagionale per lui sopo il successo di Laguna Seca; vittoria sicuramente resa più semplice dal grossolano errore di Casey <strong>Stoner </strong>nel giro di allineamento, nel quale ha esagerato con il gas a gomme fredde, cadendo e dicendo addio ai sogni di (probabilissima) vittoria.</span></span></p>
<p style="margin-bottom:0;"><span style="font-family:Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size:x-small;">Durante le qualifiche Stoner aveva messo in riga tutti e tutti si aspettavano che anche in gara Casey potesse fare un altro sport; dopo la <strong>caduta </strong>nel warm up lap però la vittoria è tornata in gioco e Pedrosa è stato il più lesto di tutti nell&#8217;approfittare di ciò.<br />
In partenza Dani non si fa pregare e parte a fionda mentre Rossi e Lorenzo vengono sopravanzati da <strong>Elias</strong>; i due yamahisti impiegano un paio di giri nel risorpassarlo ma intanto Pedrosa è già scappato.<br />
Il suo ritmo è insostenibile sia per Rossi che per <strong>Lorenzo </strong>il quale, dopo un rischio in uscita di curva, salta sulla moto e sbatte violentemente sul serbatoio andando per un attimo in confusione.<br />
Una volta passato il male Jorge riprende il ritmo e si riavvicina a <strong>Rossi </strong>ma Valentino riesce a rispondere e a garantirsi cosi la seconda posizione.</span></span></p>
<p style="margin-bottom:0;"><span style="font-family:Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size:x-small;">Dietro a Pedrosa Rossi e Lorenzo la gara ha visto un paio di lotte interessanti; la prima quella tra <strong>Edwards</strong> e <strong>Hayden </strong>per la quarta posizione e la seconda la risalita nel gruppo di Ben <strong>Spies</strong>, Campione del Mondo Superbike qui a bordo della Yamaha M1.<br />
Edwards per concludere in campionato davanti a <strong>Dovizioso </strong>doveva assolutamente raccogliere un risultato di rilievo e proprio come ha detto lui &#8220;arrivare primo degli umani&#8221;; Hayden nonostante ami Valencia non è riuscito a tenere il passo di Colin ma ha comunque corso una buona gara giungendo quinto precedendo Toni Elias, disoccupato di lusso per il 2010.<br />
<strong>Spies </strong>invece, dopo il nono posto in griglia, è partito cauto, prendendo il ritmo a mano a mano che i giri passavano e le lotte con i colleghi si facevano sempre più intense.<br />
E&#8217; riuscito a sopravanzare piloti vecchi e nuovi, fino a riprendere e a fulminare con una bellissima staccata Dovizioso, conquistando cosi la settima piazza finale.<br />
La sensazione è che ci troviamo di fronte ad un grande pilota, uno di quelli che nel 2010 dirà la sua nella lotta per il podio in svariate occasioni, anche se per pensare di infilarsi fra i <strong>fantastici quattro</strong> forse è ancora un pò presto.</span></span></p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Sejak dunia pertama kali melihat semua Ducati Multistrada 1200 yang baru terdengar beberapa keluhan tentang tampilan depan yang seperti <strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">&#8220;bebek&#8221;</span><span style="color:#ff0000;"> Ducati Multistrada 1200 </span></strong> dikarenakan hidung yang besar pada bagian depan motor. Meskipun demikian, <strong>Ducati Multistrada 1200</strong> terpilih  menjadi sepeda yang paling indah di EICMA pertunjukan di Milan. Pesaing terdekatnya hanya ada BMW R1200GS.</p>

<p><!--more-->Pembaca Motoblog Marco telah datang dengan rendering pada bagian hidung Multistrada 1200, karena menurut dia tampilan hasilnya terlihat cukup baik. Dia memulai dengan menghapus paruh depan dan reposisi lampu LED. Cukup melihat profil sepeda dan akan terelihat perbedaannya. <strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">Mungkinkah bakalan ada MINOR CHANGE buat Ducati MULTISTRADA 1200, dari Ducati sendiri? well we&#8217;ll see about that for next year</span></strong>&#8230;=D</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><strong>Wichita, Kansas to Amarillo, Texas </strong>-<strong><br />
</strong>October 3, 2009</p>
<p>The next morning, I punched in the destination on the Nuvi and grabbed a handful of throttle. Today would be a blur of interstate and rural routes to Amarillo. The total mileage today was around 400 miles. The weather was much improved and after a great night&#8217;s sleep I was ready to start riding longer distances. The bike was running perfectly. I was a bit worried about the back tire. I had Michelin Pilot Road 2ct&#8217;s on and they already had about 6000 miles. The rear had a big flat spot but the front looked perfect. I can&#8217;t say enough about how good these tires are for long distance riding. I&#8217;ve since switched to Pilot Power 2ct&#8217;s and after several thousand miles I think I prefer the Pilot Roads. I won&#8217;t go into a much detail here as I&#8217;m working on a complete review in the Gear Review section. The basic difference in the tires is the compound – the Pilot Roads are not as sticky as the Pilot Powers and the Powers have a more angular or pointed profile. This means that the more emphasis is placed on the tires sidewall. That translates into the bike falling into turns much more quickly. This can make the bike feel twitchy and nervous. BUT, when the road is warm and there are infinite curves, the Pilot Powers just walk away from the Pilot Roads. HUGE grip. More about that in another post relating to gear. Anyway I was worried about the wear on the back tire. I think if I had known at that point how much more life the tires had in them I would have not believed it.</p>
<p>The ride was mostly nondescript except for this absolute gem of a place.</p>
<p><img src="http://dryohe.files.wordpress.com/2009/11/112409_1657_aridetotheb1.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>For whatever reason on this day they were closed! Man can you imagine the goodies they serve in there? Jell-O, coconut cream pie, chipped beef on toast? What a cool looking place.</p>
<p>One thing you will see as I post more reports is that I have a thing for &#8220;The Middle of Nowhere&#8221;. I love those pictures of the road disappearing into the horizon and on this trip there would be plenty of that. This is somewhere in Kansas. Can&#8217;t say enough about the weather, it was just fantastic now. The last I heard from home (Stowe, Vermont) was that it rained for the entire month of July………………. Man, that, and six months of snow. Get me the hell out of there.</p>

<p>The ride to Amarillo was loooooooooooong. As far as I can remember I crossed into Oklahoma for a bit then into Texas. The last two hours were through featureless terrain in the gathering dusk. I had been picking up the pace as evening caught up with me. For most of the last few hours the pace was near 90+ mile an hour and mostly I was getting blown off the road by pickup trucks and dusty battered foreign cars that all seemed to be maroon with chrome accents. When the sun started to go down the temperature did as well. I was entertaining myself playing Nuvi roulette looking through various hotels in Amarillo. I have an excellent Lonely Planet USA guide book that I often use but not for hotels as I find the reviews to be usually more than I want to spend. I got to Amarillo about an hour or so after dark. I was cold and tired. I think these extended trips take a while for the rider to get into the groove. On my last trip I beat myself up riding 700 mile days. I covered a lot of ground but never really felt like I was experiencing the things I wanted to see and do. On this trip I mostly rode less miles in favor of more interesting routes and sights. In Amarillo, I found another sketchy LaQuinta (Spanish for &#8220;Welcome Home&#8221; according to their billboard) near the interstate and checked in. I unloaded the bike and changed out of my riding gear. Great, another yellow room with yellow furnishings. This LQ was even more unkempt. As I mentioned in an unfinished thought in an earlier post I ran a luxury hotel for a few years and laughingly employed the title &#8220;Hotelier&#8221;</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve had a number of careers virtually all in investment banking and alternative investment management – hedge funds, private equity and currency overlay. So of course I was naturally qualified to run a hotel in rural Vermont….. Man, Newhart the TV show was more documentary than comedy! I won&#8217;t go into it too much except to say that the four years I was an &#8220;Hotelier&#8221; I had some wonderful successes, enjoyed nature, met a ton of fantastic guests and locals and burned in the fires of hell almost daily. It&#8217;s a never, ever ending 30 hour a day job. I never realized how close my life was to that of Norman Paperman in Herman Wouk&#8217;s fantastic &#8220;Don&#8217;t&#8217; Stop the Carnival&#8221; Anyway, the point I was eventually going to make was that my view of hotel rooms has forever changed. My hotel rooms were absolutely spotless in every way. You could do surgery in the bathroom &#8211; it was that clean. From understanding the nuts and bolts of cleaning rooms, I now also have the knowledge of where to look for the &#8220;nasties&#8221; and no I won&#8217;t tell you what those are because I don&#8217;t want to ruin your enjoyment of hotels or hotel rooms. This room was not particularly clean but not dangerous. Would it kill them to vacuum under the bed once in a while?</p>
<p>I went to the convenience store next door and got a tall Coors light in a can, a diet Coke, and cheese and crackers. On the way back I cut through the lobby and ran into this huge poster advertising THE BIG TEXAN. What the hell is that? I thought. I had a distant memory of Adam Richman from Man VS Food eating there. It was interesting and the kicker was the part that said <strong>&#8220;We will pick up in a limousine and bring you back for free&#8221;</strong> I ran to my room and called for pickup. Soon enough a Cadillac Limo pulled up with steer horns on the hood. Of course the toot of the horn toot was the Yellow Rose of Texas which the driver tooted at every opportunity. I climbed into the back and settled into the maroon interior. I wish I had a glass of Bourbon and a Cowboy hat so I could J.R. Ewing up the ride! We picked up a few truckers at a truck stop and continued toward the BIG TEXAN. Along the way the driver got to talking to the truckers and by happenstance they were from the same little town in Texas somewhere to the south. The trucker commented that when he was young they used to ride horses to Amarillo over what was mostly open range and they could get there in two days. Man, two days on the open range! Sign me up. That sounded really neat and sort of disturbing at the same time. You wonder what sort of life that was. One that involved a lot of backbreaking work, heartache, and little money I&#8217;m thinking.</p>
<p><img src="http://dryohe.files.wordpress.com/2009/11/112409_1657_aridetotheb4.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>We arrived at the BIG TEXAN and climbed out of the Caddy. I tipped the driver and walked in.</p>

<p>The décor was of course western. Antlers, wood floors, tin ceiling and an assortment of other country decorations. What killed me the most was row after row of slot machines that took cash but did not return anything other than the opportunity to pull the lever and watch your money disappear. They were &#8220;for entertainment only&#8221; and gave nothing back – and people were playing these things! They also had one of those indoor shooting ranges where you put in a buck (or in this case five bucks) and shoot at the targets. I walked around a bit taking in the scene which was almost entirely composed of tourists and truckers. I grabbed a spot at the bar and ordered a BIG TEXAN beer and took a look at the menu.</p>

<p>The BIG TEXAN is famous for a food challenge of eating like 30 pounds of poorly cooked steak for free if you can choke it down in an hour so. It was $50.00 if you could not. That really did not interest me having to ride a motorcycle all day the next day. I ordered an assorted meat platter. It was indifferently cooked and soggy, mushy, and bland. But hey, I&#8217;m eating at THE BIG TEXAN! It&#8217;s the experience, it&#8217;s the atmosphere, ugg, it&#8217;s a fucking tourist trap. So, while the food was bad it was a good tourist experience and I got to ride in a steerhorn festooned caddy limo.</p>

<p>Overall Amarillo was one of more of the forgettable places I visited, tons of truck stops, crappy motels, and fast food places.</p>
<p>Tomorrow &#8211; <span style="font-size:16pt;"><strong>Tomorrow Santa Fe, New Mexico<br />

<description><![CDATA[Ya se cerraron las puertas del último y esperado Salón Internacional de la moto EICMA, en Milán, y v]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Ya se cerraron las puertas del último y esperado <strong>S</strong><strong>alón Internacional de la moto EICMA</strong>, en Milán, y vamos a dar un repaso a todo lo que allí se ha presentado, aunque ya os adelanto que la crisis ha hecho estragos, lo que se traduce en la ausencia de marcas importantes (<strong>Honda</strong> y <strong>Yamaha </strong>entre ellas), y en una gran escasez de novedades auténticas (proyectos, prototipos y otras pamplinas para llenar espacio, aparte).</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-778" title="Logo_EICMA" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/logo_eicma.jpg" alt="Logo_EICMA" width="510" height="416" /></p>
<p>Así pues, a continuación encontraréis, marca por marca, y por orden alfabético, las propuestas para el año que viene (es un <em>post</em> muy largo, por lo que tened paciencia si tarda en cargar):<!--more--></p>
<p>Antes de nada, debo aclarar que <strong>yo no estuve allí</strong>. Me he limitado a recopilar información de todos los modelos que se han presentado. Este <em>post</em> no pretende ser un compendio exhaustivo con fichas técnicas y tal, sino dar una visión global y una opinión personal de lo que nos espera en <strong>2010</strong> (una ruina, ya os lo digo). En fin, que no están todos los que son (casi), pero sí son todos los que están. No será perfecto, pero no sabéis el trabajo que da hacer un artículo como este&#8230;</p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#008000;">Comencemos:</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">APRILIA:</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">&#8220;Abrimos fuego&#8221; con la marca del león de Noale&#8230; aunque en este caso haya &#8220;disparado&#8221; con balas de fogueo, porque no se ha presentado ninguna novedad absoluta para el año que viene.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">En el sector scooter, <strong>Aprilia</strong> adapta el motor de 300 c.c. (en realidad, 278 c.c.) de origen <strong>Piaggio</strong>, ya presente en otros modelos, como el <strong>Gilera Nexus </strong>o la mismísima <strong>Vespa</strong>, a su modelo <strong>Atlantic</strong>. Este propulsor mantiene la potencia en 22,4 C.V. del anterior de 250 c.c., pero con un poco más de aceleración y par a menor régimen. En realidad, ya le debería tocar un lavadito de cara a este <strong>Atlantic 300</strong>, pero la crisis imperante aconseja mantenerlo un año más como estaba. También hay que apuntar que el modelo<strong> </strong><strong>Scarabeo</strong> adoptará el mismo motor parta la próxima temporada.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-785" title="Aprilia_atlantic_300" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/aprilia_atlantic_300.jpg" alt="Aprilia_atlantic_300" width="510" height="448" /></strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">En cuanto a motocicletas, ya comenté en una noticia anterior (<a href="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/2009/08/07/nueva-aprilia-rs-125-replica-sbk/" target="_blank"><span style="color:#ff6600;"><strong>Nuevas Aprilia réplicas SBK</strong></span></a>) la nueva decoración de la <strong>Aprilia RS 125</strong> y <strong>50</strong> (amén del scooter <strong>SR 50</strong>) basada en el equipo de Superbikes de la marca. Todas ellas fueron mostradas en vivo en Milán. Nada más que añadir al respecto.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-822" title="Aprilia_RS_replica_SBK_EICMA" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/aprilia_rs_replica_sbk_eicma.jpg" alt="Aprilia_RS_replica_SBK_EICMA" width="510" height="303" /></strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#ff0000;"><span style="color:#000000;">Y en las cilindradas medias, <strong>Aprilia</strong> nos mostró la nueva versión <strong>Factory</strong> de su modelo <strong>Dorsoduro </strong>(denominación que corresponde a los modelos más radicales y con el mejor equipamiento), y la nueva <strong>Shiver 2010.</strong></span></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-786" title="Aprilia_dorsoduro_factory_I" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/aprilia_dorsoduro_factory_i.jpg" alt="Aprilia_dorsoduro_factory_I" width="510" height="320" /></strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">En cuanto a la <strong>Dorsoduro</strong>, en esta ocasión cambian las suspensiones, aunque no para adoptar horquilla y amortiguador trasero <strong>Öhlins</strong>, como es habitual en las preparaciones Factory, sino que esta vez serán marca <strong>Sachs</strong> (de gama alta, eso sí). La razón de esta decisión es que no quieren encarecer demasiado este modelo (como si fuera barato antes&#8230;)</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">También se modifican los discos de freno, que serán &#8220;alveolados&#8221;, mordidos por pinzas radiales de 4 pistones (delante), y con sistema <strong>ABS</strong> opcional. </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Entre las pocas piezas de carenado que tiene el modelo, se incorporarán varias de ellas fabricadas en carbono. El motor se mantiene sin cambios.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-787" title="Aprilia_dorsoduro_factory_II" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/aprilia_dorsoduro_factory_ii.jpg" alt="Aprilia_dorsoduro_factory_II" width="510" height="500" /></strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Y, por último, en la <strong>Shiver 750</strong>, los cambios para la temporada que viene recaen sobre todo en su estética, con el chasis pintado en rojo y los escapes en negro, más agresiva. También se modifica el asiento (más bajo y estrecho) y la posición de las estriberas (más altas y retrasadas) para conformar un posición de conducción más deportiva.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-788" title="Aprilia_shiver_factory_I" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/aprilia_shiver_factory_i.jpg" alt="Aprilia_shiver_factory_I" width="510" height="320" /></strong></span></p>
<p>También fue presentada (aunque no voy a colgar fotos de ella) la versión &#8220;barata&#8221; de la <strong>RSV4 R</strong>, derivada de la moto que corre en Superbikes, con suspensiones y frenos más modestos. Esto es más que nada porque la otra no la va a comprar ni Dios, salvo aquel al que le toque la lotería el mes que viene.</p>
<p><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-789" title="Aprilia_shiver_factory_II" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/aprilia_shiver_factory_ii.jpg" alt="Aprilia_shiver_factory_II" width="510" height="316" /></strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#ff0000;"><span style="color:#000000;">Ah! De precios, <em>rien de rien</em>. Y, aunque resulte increíble, esto es todo lo que nos ha ofrecido </span><span style="color:#000000;"><strong>Aprilia</strong></span><span style="color:#000000;"> para el año que viene. Ni una sola sorpresa en el salón de su país. Así irán las ventas&#8230;</span></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">&#8212;</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">BENELLI:</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">La única novedad que nos presenta esta minoritaria marca en manos chinas (<strong>Keeway</strong>) es esta <strong>TNT R160</strong>. El &#8220;160&#8243; es por el número de C.V. declarados, y el modelo en cuestión no es más que la versión más radical del modelo <strong>TNT</strong> original, con el característico motor tricilíndrico exprimido al máximo.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-831" title="Benelli_TNT_160_EICMA" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/benelli_tnt_160_eicma.jpg" alt="Benelli_TNT_160_EICMA" width="510" height="349" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Pero la cuestión es: ¿Dónde está la desaparecida <strong>Benelli Due 750</strong> que sí presentaron en un extraño salón en China hace sólo un mes? ¿No se suponía que 2010 iba a ser el año de su comercialización definitiva? Qué pena, porque <strong>Benelli</strong> anda necesitada de algún modelo de gama media de manera urgente&#8230;</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">&#8212;</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">BMW:</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Al margen de las nuevas <strong>R 1200 RT</strong> y <strong>R 1200 GS</strong>, ya comentadas anteriormente en otro <em>post</em> (<a href="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/2009/11/07/bmw-renueva-sus-modelos-r-1200-gs-y-r-1200-rt/" target="_blank"><strong><span style="color:#ff6600;">BMW renueva sus clásicos</span></strong></a>) -de las que no hay nada nuevo que contar-, <strong>BMW</strong> consiguió captar la atención de todos los medios con el siguiente prototipo: el espectacular <strong>EVO 6</strong>.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-790" title="P90053666" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/bmw_evovi_i.jpg" alt="P90053666" width="510" height="340" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">En esta ocasión, el &#8220;6&#8243; nos indica <strong>¡el número de cilindros de la moto!</strong> Y no es que sea el primer modelo de la historia en tener tal cantidad de cilindros en su bloque motor (ya hubo una <strong>Benelli Sei</strong> a principios de los &#8216;80, por poner tan sólo un ejemplo), pero sí es cierto que la propuesta de <strong>BMW</strong> resulta impactante porque hoy en día nadie parecía tener <em>bemoles </em>de ingeniar algo así otra vez. </span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-791" title="P90053668" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/bmw_evovi_ii.jpg" alt="P90053668" width="510" height="298" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Como ya he dicho, en el pasado existieron otros modelos con esta configuración de motor, que gozaron del inigualable prestigio de ser el &#8220;top absoluto&#8221; en motorización motociclista, pero también tuvieron fama de problemáticos, pesados, y sobre todo&#8230; caros. </span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-792" title="P90053672" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/bmw_evovi_iii.jpg" alt="P90053672" width="510" height="374" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Sin embargo, esto último no parece suponer un problema para <strong>BMW</strong> (total, sus motos nunca fueron para todos los públicos&#8230;). Además, han conseguido fabricar un motor muy compacto, que abulta poco más que un clásico <em>cuatro-en-línea</em>, y en cuanto a tecnología, creo que nadie va a venir a explicar a esta gente cómo fabricar motores.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-793" title="P90053680" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/bmw_evovi_iv.jpg" alt="P90053680" width="510" height="340" /></span></strong></p>
<p>Pero los germanos no se han limitado a crear un prototipo para armar revuelo y ya está. Los de <strong>BMW</strong> prometen que este motor lo veremos <strong>a corto plazo</strong> en un modelo turístico de la marca. Posiblemente, la <strong>K 1600 LT</strong>, porque (no lo había dicho aún) esa es la cilindrada de este nuevo propulsor: <strong>1.600 c.c.</strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-794" title="P90053375" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/bmw_evovi_v.jpg" alt="P90053375" width="510" height="274" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">El mismo ha sido fabricado con los procesos más modernos de que es capaz <strong>BMW</strong>, y augura una suavidad y fiabilidad de uso sin precedentes. Se comenta que la potencia que podría alcanzar estaría más o menos al nivel de los actuales motores de 1.300 c.c., pero con un par demoledor a cualquier régimen. Se han empeñado mucho más en conseguir una recuperación vertiginosa en medios que en obtener potencia máxima a altísimas vueltas.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-795" title="P90053379" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/bmw_evovi_vi.jpg" alt="P90053379" width="510" height="381" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Y para que no quede duda de que el modelo es auténtico, y no un dibujito por ordenador, aquí tenéis una foto de un señor con poca pinta de piloto probador subido en ella (debe ser un pez gordo de la marca&#8230;). La verdad es que el hombre éste no le hace justicia al hiper-moderno prototipo. </span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-796" title="P90053665" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/bmw_evovi_vii.jpg" alt="P90053665" width="510" height="401" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#ff0000;"><span style="color:#000000;">Resumiendo la actuación en el <strong>EICMA</strong>: <strong>BMW</strong> renueva el motor de dos modelos clave (<strong>1200 GS</strong> y <strong>1200 RT</strong>) y nos promete alta tecnología para el futuro.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#ff0000;"><span style="color:#000000;"><strong>Para los pobres, nada nuevo. </strong>La crisis es para otros&#8230;</span></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">&#8212;</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">DERBI:</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#ff0000;"><span style="color:#000000;">Esperaba más de los españoles, la verdad (bueno, esperaba más del salón, en general). Se han limitado a adaptar la <strong>GPR 125</strong> a su versión ciclomotor de 49 c.c., el motor <strong>Piaggio</strong> 300 a su scooter <strong>Rambla</strong>, y poco más.</span></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-797" title="Derbi_GPR_50_EICMA" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/derbi_gpr_50_eicma.jpg" alt="Derbi_GPR_50_EICMA" width="510" height="393" /></span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><span style="font-weight:normal;"><span style="color:#000000;">E</span></span><span style="font-weight:normal;"><span style="color:#000000;">se poco más es este modelo llamado <strong>Sónar</strong>, en cilindradas de 50 (2T) y 125 c.c. (4T), que a su vez, no es más que un <strong>Piaggio Liberty </strong>con pegatinas de <strong>Derbi</strong>. Es un scooter ciudadano de carácter económico y fiable.</span></span></span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-798" title="Derbi_Sonar_EICMA" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/derbi_sonar_eicma.jpg" alt="Derbi_Sonar_EICMA" width="510" height="478" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">También se ha creado una nueva gama de componentes especiales, <strong>DRD Parts</strong>, para sus modelos con motor de marchas 125 c.c y 4 válvulas (<strong>Mulhacén</strong>, <strong>Terra</strong>, <strong>GPR</strong>&#8230;). Entre esos componentes hay tubos de escape, embragues hidráulicos, kits de potenciación a 150 c.c. y algunas cosillas más.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">&#8212;</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">DUCATI:</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;"> La marca de Bolonia decora sus modelos más deportivos, la <strong>1198 S</strong> y <strong>R</strong>, homenajeando al departamento de carreras de la casa, el <strong>Reparto Corse</strong>. Además, la versión S (la menos cara, digamos) se queda ahora a sólo 10 CV de potencia de los 180 CV de su hermana mayor, la <strong>1198 R</strong>, que es la base de la homologación para el Campeonato Mundial de Superbikes.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Esto es debido a que a <strong>Ducati</strong> le compensa más a montar los mismos componentes de motor a ambas, que no hacerlo, para reducir costes de fabricación. Aunque a este paso, no sé para qué cojones hacen dos versiones diferentes&#8230; si son casi iguales.</span></p>
<p><strong><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-799" title="Ducati_Corse_1198_EICMA_II" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/ducati_corse_1198_eicma_ii.jpg" alt="Ducati_Corse_1198_EICMA_II" width="510" height="251" /></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Otra novedad es el depósito de aluminio, de bella factura, que en <strong>Ducati</strong> han dejado casi sin pintar para que destaque ese material. La verdad es que la moto es preciosa, y aunque su precio sea prohibitivo para el consumidor medio, creo que su diseño es digno de observarse.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-800" title="Ducati_Corse_1198_EICMA_I" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/ducati_corse_1198_eicma_i.jpg" alt="Ducati_Corse_1198_EICMA_I" width="510" height="390" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Otra modelo presentado es la nueva <strong>Hypermotard 1100 Evo</strong>. Sí, sí, la 1100. Ya hablamos de la nueva <strong><a href="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/2009/09/23/nueva-ducati-hypermotard-796/" target="_blank"><span style="color:#ff6600;">versión 796</span></a></strong> (nada nuevo sobre ella, por cierto), pero ahora su hermana mayor ha aprovechado su &#8220;descendencia&#8221; para renovarse ligeramente, con un nuevo chasis más sencillo y un motor con 5 C.V. más (ahora tiene 100) y algún kilo menos. </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">También se ha aprovechado para optimizar la admisión, el sistema de inyección electrónica, reforzar cigüeñal, embrague, y suavizar el cambio de marchas. Vamos, que la versión pequeña ha forzado a la anterior a ponerse al día, lo cual siempre está bien. O, dicho de otro modo, que a <strong>Ducati</strong> le más rentable fabricar a las dos de la misma forma. Es tiempo de rebajar costes de producción.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-801" title="Ducati_Hipermotard_1100_evo" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/ducati_hipermotard_1100_evo.jpg" alt="Ducati_Hipermotard_1100_evo" width="510" height="296" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Al margen de lo anterior, la novedad más importante de la marca ha sido la <strong>Multistrada 1200</strong>. Y, siguiendo con mi norma de no dulicar contenidos, os dejo el <em>link </em>donde hablé de ella: <a href="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/2009/11/07/ducati-multistrada-1200-primeras-imagenes/" target="_blank"><strong><span style="color:#ff6600;">Multistrada 1200</span></strong></a>. </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Este ha sido, probablemente, el modelo más esperado del salón. Desde luego, su estética no dejará a nadie indiferente. Su motor guarda 150 C.V. gestionados por un puño de gas electrónico “ride by wire”, control de tracción ajustable, suspensiones <strong>Öhlins</strong> regulables electrónicamente, ABS desconectable fabricado por <strong>Bosch</strong>, arranque por llave remota, y sensor de presión de neumáticos.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-865" title="Ducati_multistrada1200_I" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/ducati_multistrada1200_i1.jpg" alt="Ducati_multistrada1200_I" width="510" height="363" /></span></p>
<p>Su centralita electrónica dispone de 4 modos de gestionar la potencia de su motor <em>testastretta</em>: Sport, Touring, Urban y Enduro, limitándola a gusto del usuario entre los 150 y 100 CV, ajustando además el control de tracción <strong>DTC</strong> y el tacto de las suspensiones, dotados del nuevo sistema <strong>DES</strong>. Estos cuatro modos pueden seleccionarse en parado o en marcha, al igual que los cuatro ajustes de suspensión. <strong>Impresionante.</strong></p>
<p>El motor es un bicilíndrico en L a 90º, de 1.198 c.c., con embrague en baño de aceite, cigüeñal reforzado, caja de cambios revisada y un nuevo calado del cierre de válvulas, que produce una respuesta de motor más dulce y menos contaminante.</p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-864" title="Ducati_multistrada1200_IV" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/ducati_multistrada1200_iv1.jpg" alt="Ducati_multistrada1200_IV" width="510" height="351" /></span></p>
<p>Habrá dos versiones básicas: la <strong>estándar</strong> y la <strong>S</strong>, aunque esta última tendrá a su vez otras dos versiones, la <strong>Sport Edition</strong> y la <strong>Touring Edition</strong>. La versión estándar tendrá suspensiones <strong>Marzocchi</strong> y <strong>Sachs</strong> multiajustables, y el ABS será opcional. En la versión <strong>S,</strong> el ABS viene de serie, al igual que las suspensiones <strong>Öhlins</strong> ajustables electrónicamente, y el cliente podrá escoger entre la Sport Edition, con partes de fibra de carbono, y la Touring Edition con maletas laterales, caballete central, sensor de presión de neumáticos y puños calefactables.</p>
<p>El chasis también es nuevo, con una estructura principal multitubular de acero redondo en la parte delantera, y la parte trasera que sujeta el motor y el nuevo basculante (más resistente) en fundición de aluminio.</p>
<p>A nivel de frenos tenemos unas pinzas radiales delanteras <strong>Brembo</strong> con cuatro pistones, y llantas de aleación de 17 pulgadas. La araña del faro es de <strong>¡magnesio!</strong> (no sé por qué tanto derroche en esta parte&#8230;) El peso final en seco de la <strong>Multistrada 1200</strong> se queda en unos teóricos 189 kilos.</p>
<p><strong><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-802" title="Ducati_multistrada_1200_EICMA_I" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/ducati_multistrada_1200_eicma_i.jpg" alt="Ducati_multistrada_1200_EICMA_I" width="510" height="376" /></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">También se ha anunciado la llegada para el año que viene del sistema de frenos ABS para las <strong>Monster 696</strong> y <strong>1100</strong>. Se podrá regular el grado de interferencia del sistema y, además, desconectar completamente.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Lo cierto es que <strong>Ducati</strong> ha sido una de las marcas más activas del <strong>Salón EICMA</strong>, lo cual es de agradecer. La <strong>Multistrada 1200</strong> es una máquina increíble, pero algo me dice que tanta electrónica y tanto avance no conseguirán más que alejarla del público masivo debido a un coste elevado. Espero equivocarme.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Desde luego no cabe duda de que las cosas no van tan mal en <strong>Ducati</strong>, pero su gama de precios tampoco es para economías ajustadas. El tiempo les dará la razón (o no). </span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">&#8212;</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">HYOSUNG:</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">En esta ocasión, <strong>Hyosung</strong> ha querido dar a conocer al mundo que ellos también se están preparando para los cambios que se avecinan en el mundo de la automoción, presentando dos modelos de propulsión eléctrica: los denominados <strong>GEM 2.0</strong> y <strong>4.0</strong>. </span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-812" title="Hyosung_gem2.0_EICMA" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/hyosung_gem2-0_eicma.jpg" alt="Hyosung_gem2.0_EICMA" width="510" height="340" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Estos modelos no son más que versiones de los actuales <strong>SF 50 </strong>y<strong> MS3 125 </strong>respectivamente, aunque convenientemente modificados para adoptar sendos motores eléctricos. La potencia se sitúa sobre los 5 C.V. en el modelo 2.0, y entorno a los 9,5 en el 4.0. Por ahora son sólo prototipos, pero ya sabemos que <strong>Hyosung</strong> está trabajando con baterías de polímeros de litio, más eficientes que las más populares (y baratas) de Ion-lítio, lo cual es una buena noticia.</span></p>
<p>No hay datos aún sobre una futura comercialización.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-813" title="Hyosung_gem4.0_EICMA" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/hyosung_gem4-0_eicma.jpg" alt="Hyosung_gem4.0_EICMA" width="510" height="428" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Y la otra novedad de la marca es su <strong>Hyosung GV 700i</strong>, de la que ya hablé en esta noticia (<a href="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/2009/10/23/avance-nueva-hyosung-aquila-700/" target="_blank"><strong><span style="color:#ff6600;">Nueva Hyosung Aquila 700</span></strong></a>). La verdad es que este modelo genera mucha polémica en este país (¿en todos, quizás?). Esta moto no crea más que posiciones radicales: <strong>unos la aman y otros la odian</strong>. Los contenidos precios de la marca son siempre una fuente eterna de discusión, pues son mucho más asequibles que los de la competencia, y eso despierta muchos recelos.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-814" title="Hyosung_Aquila_700_EICMA_I" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/hyosung_aquila_700_eicma_i.jpg" alt="Hyosung_Aquila_700_EICMA_I" width="510" height="384" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Desgraciadamente no hay nuevos datos sobre ella aparte de lo ya comentado en el <em>link</em> anterior.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Fecha de disponibilidad aproximada: <strong>primavera de 2010.</strong></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-815" title="Hyosung_Aquila_700_EICMA_II" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/hyosung_aquila_700_eicma_ii.jpg" alt="Hyosung_Aquila_700_EICMA_II" width="510" height="365" /></span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">&#8212;</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">KAWASAKI:</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">La marca de <strong>Akashi </strong>también se ha portado. Han sido 6 novedades (o apaños) en total: <strong>Z 1000</strong>, <strong>ZX 10R Ninja</strong>, <strong>GTR 1400</strong>, <strong>Versys 650</strong>, <strong>KLX 125</strong> y <strong>D-Tracker 125</strong>.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Sin embargo, la información sobre las novedades sigue siendo la misma que cuando publiqué el adelanto del <strong>EICMA</strong>, así que, como no me quiero repetir, os remito a él para ver las imágenes y demás: <a href="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/2009/10/09/novedades-kawasaki-2010/" target="_blank"><strong><span style="color:#ff6600;">Kawasaki en el EICMA de Milán.</span></strong></a></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Al margen de esto, cuelgo aquí unas pocas fotos más de la <strong>Versys 2010</strong>, que con esta nueva estética puede ser un modelo con muy buenas ventas para el año que viene. </span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-852" title="Kawasaki_versys_2010_EICMA_I" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/kawasaki_versys_2010_eicma_i.jpg" alt="Kawasaki_versys_2010_EICMA_I" width="510" height="382" /></span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-853" title="Kawasaki_versys_2010_EICMA_II" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/kawasaki_versys_2010_eicma_ii.jpg" alt="Kawasaki_versys_2010_EICMA_II" width="510" height="406" /></span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-854" title="Kawasaki_versys_2010_EICMA_III" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/kawasaki_versys_2010_eicma_iii.jpg" alt="Kawasaki_versys_2010_EICMA_III" width="510" height="389" /></span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">&#8212;</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">KTM:</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Los austríacos de <strong>Mattighofen</strong>, aparte de su gama <em>off-road</em> (de la cual no comento nada porque es un territorio que no me incumbe), presentaron la versión <strong>R</strong> de su exitosa <strong>Duke III</strong>. Esta variante equipa ciertos elementos de mayor calidad que el modelo estándar, como llantas <strong>Marchesini</strong>, suspensiones <strong>WP</strong> multiajustables, con las barras de la horquilla recubiertas de nitruro de titanio, y el guardabarros delantero fabricado en fibra de carbono.<br />
</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-816" title="KTM_duke_690R_EICMA_I" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/ktm_duke_690r_eicma_i.jpg" alt="KTM_duke_690R_EICMA_I" width="510" height="359" /></span></strong></p>
<p>Además, el motor ha sido potenciado hasta los 690 c.c. (654 antes), con lo que la potencia final se eleva hasta los <strong>70 CV</strong>, lo que la convirtierte en la monocilíndrica más potente del mercado.</p>
<p>Y me pregunto yo: <strong>¿cómo será de fiable un monocilíndrico con 70 C.V.?</strong> ¿Cuánto aceite consumirá, teniendo en cuenta su configuración? Y con las vibraciones, ¿te aguantarán los empastes? Me encantaría conocer la respuesta a esas incógnitas.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-817" title="KTM_duke_690R_EICMA_II" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/ktm_duke_690r_eicma_ii.jpg" alt="KTM_duke_690R_EICMA_II" width="510" height="406" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;"><strong>KTM</strong> también ha hablado de su proyecto de fabricar pequeñas motocicletas para la cilindrada de convalidación, 125 c.c.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Ya había rumores de que <strong>KTM</strong> quería producir pequeños motores de ámbito urbano a través de la marca india de motocicletas <strong><a href="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/2009/08/20/¿nuevas-ktm-125-para-todos-los-publicos/" target="_blank"><span style="color:#ff6600;">Bajaj</span></a></strong>, a su vez accionista mayoritario de la marca austríaca.<strong> Sin embargo, el tema parece que no ha cuajado, pero en KTM siguen adelante con el proyecto </strong>y han decidido hacerlo todo en Austria, con diseño a cargo de <strong>Kiska Design</strong> (como el resto de la gama &#8220;naranja&#8221;).</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;"> <strong><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-818" title="KTM_proyecto_125_EICMA_II" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/ktm_proyecto_125_eicma_ii.jpg" alt="KTM_proyecto_125_EICMA_II" width="510" height="276" /></strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="color:#000000;">Así que, de momento, nos han mostrado algunos prototipos de lo que pretenden hacer: minimalistas, muy deportivos y agresivos, aunque seguro que para cuando se pasen a la serie no tienen nada que ver con las imágenes que aquí vemos.</span></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-819" title="KTM_proyecto_125_EICMA_I" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/ktm_proyecto_125_eicma_i.jpg" alt="KTM_proyecto_125_EICMA_I" width="510" height="294" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Se prevé que estén motorizados con un propulsor monocilíndrico derivado de los modelos de <strong>250 c.c.</strong> de <em>enduro</em>: ligero y compacto, 4 tiempos, refrigerado por líquido, DOHC con 4 válvulas e inyección electrónica.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-820" title="KTM_proyecto_125_EICMA_III" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/ktm_proyecto_125_eicma_iii.jpg" alt="KTM_proyecto_125_EICMA_III" width="510" height="541" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;"><strong>KTM</strong> también mostró una versión <strong>Akrapovic Race Réplica</strong> de su <strong>RC8R</strong>, una edición especial de la que tan sólo se fabricarán 100 unidades para sibaritas de los circuitos. Eso sí, al módico precio de <strong>21.000 € </strong>y pico.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;"><a href="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/ktm_rc8r_akrapovic.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-868" title="KTM_RC8R_akrapovic" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/ktm_rc8r_akrapovic.jpg" alt="" width="510" height="307" /></a> </span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">&#8212;</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">KYMCO:</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">La marca taiwanesa especialista en scooters con una acertadísima relación calidad/precio ha sido también bastante prolífica en novedades.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Lo cierto es que <strong>Kymco</strong> ha sido una de las pocas marcas en España (¿la única?) que ha aumentado sus ventas en este 2009 de crisis galopante, y esto es debido a factores como unos precios muy ajustados, calidad más que razonable y una estética muy atractiva en sus modelos.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Y las propuestas para el 2010 son las siguientes:</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;"><strong>G5 125i</strong>: scooter urbano de carácter económico, con motor refrigerado por aire muy evolucionado, con inyección electrónica. Equipos ópticos de gran calidad (leds detrás) y frenos de discos lobulados en ambos ejes. <strong>Ya a la venta en España.</strong></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-803" title="Kymco_G5_EICMA" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/kymco_g5_eicma.jpg" alt="Kymco_G5_EICMA" width="510" height="449" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;"><strong>Agility RS 50:</strong> con motor 2 tiempos y una estética enfocada al público más joven. Comparte todos los componentes con el Agility estándar.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-804" title="Kymco_agility_RS_EICMA" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/kymco_agility_rs_eicma.jpg" alt="Kymco_agility_RS_EICMA" width="510" height="389" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;"><strong>Like 200i</strong>: versión potenciada de este scooter de carácter retro, con motor monocilíndrico de 200 c.c., 4T, refigerado por aire, SOHC 2V, con inyección electrónica, el mismo que equipa el <strong>Kymco People S 200i</strong>. Sin embargo, es probable que esta versión no llegue a España y se venda sólo en Italia.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-805" title="Kymco_like_200_EICMA" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/kymco_like_200_eicma.jpg" alt="Kymco_like_200_EICMA" width="510" height="384" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#ff0000;"><span style="color:#000000;"><strong>Many 50</strong>: u</span><span style="color:#000000;">n modelo ultra-económico de carácter exclusivamente urbano (¿y exclusivamente femenino?), con motor 4T y 3 válvulas. Se desconoce si se importará a nuestro país.</span></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-806" title="Kymco_many_50_EICMA" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/kymco_many_50_eicma.jpg" alt="Kymco_many_50_EICMA" width="510" height="446" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;"><strong>Downtown/Gran Dink 300 y 200</strong>: la estrella de la fiesta. <strong>Kymco</strong> tiene puestas muchas ilusiones en este modelo, que viene dispuesto a romper moldes.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Tras el lanzamiento hace unos meses de la primera versión 125, ahora la marca nos lo va a traer en 200 y 300 c.c. De la variante de 200 no tengo datos, pero la superior llega cargadita de sorpresas. La primera de ellas es que habrá versión con <strong>ABS,</strong> fabricado por <strong>Bosch</strong> (por cierto, inventor del sistema aplicado a motocicletas).</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;"><strong><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-807" title="Kymco_superdink_300_I" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/kymco_superdink_300_i.jpg" alt="Kymco_superdink_300_I" width="510" height="379" /></strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#ff0000;"><span style="color:#000000;">El motor es un monocilíndrico de 4 tiempos refrigerado por agua, DOHC con 4 válvulas e inyección electrónica. Equipará soluciones mecánicas tan poco frecuentes en la categoría como la culata <em>monoblock</em> 4 válvulas, pistón aligerado, cilindro con tratamiento de baja fricción, un sistema de transmisión con variador por desplazamiento sobre ejes para minimizar la pérdida de potencia, etc. Toda una máquina llena de tecnología.</span></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-808" title="Kymco_superdink_300_II" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/kymco_superdink_300_ii.jpg" alt="Kymco_superdink_300_II" width="510" height="413" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Todo esto proporciona una potencia máxima de <strong>30 C.V. </strong>(declarados), un auténtico récord de la categoría, y un par motor de <strong>33,9 Nm a 6.500 rpm.</strong>, lo que le permitirá desarrollar unas prestaciones teóricamente superiores a todos los 250 c.c. del mercado. Ya lo veremos.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">De momento ya se puede adquirir la versión 300 al ajustadísimo precio de <strong>3.880 €</strong>. La variante con <strong>ABS</strong> vendrá más adelante por un poco más de pasta, evidentemente.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-809" title="Kymco_superdink_300_III" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/kymco_superdink_300_iii.jpg" alt="Kymco_superdink_300_III" width="510" height="298" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;"><strong>People GT 300i</strong>: primo hermano del <strong>Gran Dink 300 </strong>(con quien comparte motor), pero con ruedas altas de 16&#8243;. Evoluciona de manera notable desde el anterior <strong>People 250</strong>, tanto estética como mecánicamente.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">De momento sabemos que equipará frenada combinada, que su propulsor puede ser una bomba, que viene a declararle la guerra al <strong>Honda Scoopy 300</strong> y que&#8230; puede llegar a ganarla, aunque superarle en ventas ya será otro cantar.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-810" title="Kymco_People_300_EICMA" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/kymco_people_300_eicma.jpg" alt="Kymco_People_300_EICMA" width="510" height="374" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Sólo tengo dos preguntas importantes para los señores de <strong>Kymco</strong>:</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;"><strong>1)</strong> <strong>¿Dónde han perdido el Myroad 700?</strong> Por favor, que manden a alguien a buscarlo, porque en algún sitio tiene que estar&#8230;</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;"><strong>2)</strong> <strong>¿Para cuándo una renovación de un modelo con tanto éxito como la Venox?</strong> El tema ya va rumbo al décimo aniversario con la misma estética. Ya está bien, ¿no?</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">&#8212;</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">MOTO GUZZI:</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Tras preocupantes rumores sobre la continuidad de la mítica marca del águila, que apuntaban a que se cerraría la fábrica original (y actual) de <strong>Mandello del Lario</strong>, parece que el grupo <strong>Piaggio</strong> -a quien pertenece- ha decidido hacer una apuesta de futuro sobre ella, aunque no sabemos si será acertada. En total, planean invertir <strong>12 millones de euros</strong> para el lanzamiento de nuevos modelos en las próximas temporadas, y se mantendrá la producción en su legendaria fábrica -que van a modernizar- mientras que el departamento de desarrollo se traslada. </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">De momento, lo que nos han mostrado son tres propuestas de un proyecto conocido como <strong>V12</strong>, del que se desprenden tres propuestas diseñadas nada menos que por <strong>Pierre Terblanche </strong>(padre de muchas famosas <strong>Ducati</strong>)<strong> </strong>y <strong>Miguel Ángel Galuzzi </strong>(creador de, entre otras, la mítica <strong>Ducati Monster </strong>original), que parten de una misma base con diferentes enfoques.</span></p>
<p><strong><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-823" title="MotoGuzzi_prototipo_EICMA_I" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/motoguzzi_prototipo_eicma_i.jpg" alt="MotoGuzzi_prototipo_EICMA_I" width="510" height="398" /></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><span style="font-weight:normal;"><span style="color:#000000;">Las tres versiones son prototipos de momento, pero ya apuntan un motor bicilíndrico transversal en V a 90 grados, típico de <strong>Moto Guzzi</strong>, con una cilindrada de 1.200 c.c. y 8 válvulas, con un protagonismo indiscutible en el aspecto exterior de estos modelos.</span></span></span></strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-weight:normal;">Al chasis de doble espina superior que portan todos ellos se han anclado diferentes suspensiones, pero siempre con el moderno sistema de transmisión monobrazo por cardán <strong>CARC</strong>.</span><br />
</strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-824" title="MotoGuzzi_prototipo_EICMA_II" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/motoguzzi_prototipo_eicma_ii.jpg" alt="MotoGuzzi_prototipo_EICMA_II" width="510" height="403" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Los modelos se denominan de la siguiente manera: <strong>V12 X</strong> (primera foto superior), en plan <em>supermotard</em>; <strong>V12 Strada</strong> (sobre estas líneas), con un enfoque <em>naked</em> de gran cilindrada más convencional; y <strong>V12 LE</strong> (¿Le Mans?), en plan moto deportiva (foto de abajo).</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Desde luego los diseños aún se ven muy lejanos de la producción, y sobre todo, ya se adivinan poco asequibles al gran público, y no sé si eso es lo que ahora necesita <strong>Moto Guzzi</strong>.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Ya veremos con el tiempo en qué queda todo esto.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-825" title="MotoGuzzi_prototipo_EICMA_III" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/motoguzzi_prototipo_eicma_iii.jpg" alt="MotoGuzzi_prototipo_EICMA_III" width="510" height="323" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Y pasamos de unos prototipos a otro modelo que no lo es, pero lo parece. Aquí está, se llama <strong>V7 Clubman Racer</strong>, y es una preciosidad.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-826" title="MotoGuzzi_V7Club_EICMA_I" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/motoguzzi_v7club_eicma_i.jpg" alt="MotoGuzzi_V7Club_EICMA_I" width="510" height="384" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">La moto es otro derivado del original <strong>V7</strong>, que a su vez utiliza el mismo motor que las ya antiguas, pero todavía presentes <strong>Breva/STR 750</strong> y <strong>Nevada 750</strong>. Y aunque su apariencia invite a pensar en una potencia muy destacada, en realidad sólo tiene <strong>48 C.V.</strong>, lo cual no significa que no pueda ser muy divertida (aunque muchos ahora pensarán lo contrario).</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-827" title="MotoGuzzi_V7Club_EICMA_II" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/motoguzzi_v7club_eicma_ii.jpg" alt="MotoGuzzi_V7Club_EICMA_II" width="510" height="288" /></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Estéticamente es una maravilla, y hará las delicias de más de un amante de lo retro. El chasis va pintado íntegramente en rojo, mientras que el bloque motor se queda en negro. Asiento monoplaza, frenos <strong>Brembo</strong>, escapes <strong>Arrow</strong> con los colectores protegidos con cinta de amianto, semimanillares por debajo de la tija, amortiguadores con botella de gas separada&#8230;</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-828" title="MotoGuzzi_V7Club_EICMA_III" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/motoguzzi_v7club_eicma_iii.jpg" alt="MotoGuzzi_V7Club_EICMA_III" width="510" height="408" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Lo malo de todo esto es que tanto detalle tendrá un precio, y aunque aún no se conoce, teniendo en cuenta que la <strong>V7 Café Classic</strong> ya está casi en los 9.000 €, ésta que es mucho más especial, puede tener un coste demasiado elevado para la sencillez de su planteamiento, dado que el motor ya tiene años, y la parte ciclo, en el fondo, no tiene nada de particular. Eso sí, a bonita no le gana nadie.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-829" title="MotoGuzzi_V7Club_EICMA_IV" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/motoguzzi_v7club_eicma_iv.jpg" alt="MotoGuzzi_V7Club_EICMA_IV" width="510" height="334" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Y para finalizar, una nueva versión de un modelo más terrenal: la <strong>Moto Guzzi</strong> <strong>Norge GT 8V</strong>, que como su propio nombre indica, adopta ahora la nueva culata multiválvulas, que proporcionará un funcionamiento más suave y eficiente. También se han revisado las suspensiones y el carenado para mejorar la aerodinámica.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-830" title="MotoGuzzi_norge_tourism" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/motoguzzi_norge_tourism.jpg" alt="MotoGuzzi_norge_tourism" width="510" height="329" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Como comentaba más arriba, no está muy claro si el nuevo rumbo que van a darle los de <strong>Piaggio</strong> a <strong>Moto Guzzi</strong> es el que realmente necesita. Actualmente cuentan con un mercado minoritario y algo elitista, y aunque eso no tiene por qué ser malo, no parece que les esté reportando grandes beneficios. Entonces, ¿por qué insistir en la misma fórmula? </span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">&#8212;</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">MOTO MORINI:</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Y si <strong>Moto Guzzi</strong> es minoritaria, <strong>Moto Morini</strong> ni te cuento. </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">En esta ocasión presentan un nuevo derivado con enfoque <em>supermotard</em>, apodado <strong>Granferro</strong>, partiendo de su motor de 1.200 c.c. bicilíndrico en V.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">La parte ciclo se hereda de su &#8220;hermana&#8221; <strong>Granpasso</strong>, y estéticamente sigue la misma línea extraña de todos los modelos de la marca.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-832" title="Moto_morini_granferro_EICMA" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/moto_morini_granferro_eicma.jpg" alt="Moto_morini_granferro_EICMA" width="510" height="334" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#ff0000;"><span style="color:#000000;">Pese a que la marca italiana <strong>Moto Morini</strong> tiene ciertos laureles en la historia del motociclismo, además de fabricar potentes motores propios, mucho que me temo que estamos asistiendo a los últimos coletazos de su etapa más reciente, porque no se aprecia ninguna evolución positiva en su catálogo. Espero equivocarme. </span></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">&#8212;</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">MV AGUSTA:</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">La verdad es que, tengo que admitirlo, las grandes deportivas no son santo de mi devoción, al menos como usuario. No está entre mis habilidades (ni estará) la de pilotar a 300 kms/h. Y si hablamos de motos de auténtico lujo como las que fabrica <strong>MV Agusta,</strong> pues menos aún, porque es tan inútil como hablar de un <strong>Rolls Royce</strong>: las probabilidades de que algún día tengas uno son francamente ridículas.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-833" title="MV_Agusta_F4_2010_EICMA_I" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/mv_agusta_f4_2010_eicma_i.jpg" alt="MV_Agusta_F4_2010_EICMA_I" width="510" height="360" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#ff0000;"><span style="color:#000000;">Aún así, no lo puedo evitar: estas motos son maravillas del diseño industrial. Bellísimas hasta decir basta y potentes como para ser aptas sólo para manos expertas.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#ff0000;"><span style="color:#000000;"><strong>MV Agusta</strong> renueva totalmente su modelo estrella <strong>F4</strong>, una vez que <strong>Massimo Tamburini</strong> (gran director de diseño en la marca durante muchísimo tiempo) ha dejado vacante su puesto de trabajo por jubilación.</span></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-834" title="MV_Agusta_F4_2010_EICMA_II" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/mv_agusta_f4_2010_eicma_ii.jpg" alt="MV_Agusta_F4_2010_EICMA_II" width="510" height="306" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Ahora el motor es totalmente nuevo y el diseño exterior se ha modernizado con mucho acierto, destacando la cuadratura de su cuádruple salida de escape por el colín, tan característica de este modelo, y que tanta escuela ha creado.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-835" title="MV_Agusta_F4_2010_EICMA_III" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/mv_agusta_f4_2010_eicma_iii.jpg" alt="MV_Agusta_F4_2010_EICMA_III" width="510" height="403" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#ff0000;"><span style="color:#000000;">Aunque uno no se vea nunca encima de una de estas bestias, es inevitable admirar la belleza de sus líneas y la potencia que emanan sus afinados diseños. Ahora que finalmente sabemos que <strong>Harley-Davidson</strong> (actual propietaria de <strong>MV Agusta</strong>) la va a poner de nuevo en venta, no sabemos qué será de su futuro, pero cualquier inversor sensato debería tener claro que esta no es una fábrica de motocicletas más, sino una leyenda del motociclismo.</span></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-836" title="MV_Agusta_F4_2010_EICMA_IV" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/mv_agusta_f4_2010_eicma_iv.jpg" alt="MV_Agusta_F4_2010_EICMA_IV" width="510" height="428" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Al margen de esto, la exclusiva marca italiana también ha dedicado tiempo a renovar el modelo <em>naked</em>, <strong>Brutale</strong>, aunque manteniendo las líneas maestras de su antecesora. Una vez más, seguimos hablando de magia sobre dos ruedas. Yo no lo tildaría de arte, pero sí de obras maestras del diseño. Ahí quedan para el disfrute visual de todos, y el uso de muy pocos.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-851" title="MV_Agusta_Brutale_2010_I" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/mv_agusta_brutale_2010_i.jpg" alt="MV_Agusta_Brutale_2010_I" width="510" height="310" /></span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">&#8212;</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">PEUGEOT:</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">El fabricante galo de scooters (además de automóviles, evidentemente) se está tomando en serio lo de los vehículos de tres ruedas. Esta es la segunda ocasión que nos muestra este prototipo, denominado <strong>Hybrid3 Evolution</strong>, y parece que todo va encaminado a una no muy lejana producción.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Una vez comprobado el éxito de la peligrosa apuesta de <strong>Piaggio</strong> con su <strong>MP3</strong> de dos ruedas delanteras, ahora que el riesgo ya lo han corrido ellos y les ha salido bien, vienen otros a sacar tajada de ese nicho de mercado. En este caso, Peugeot planea emplear un propulsor híbrido (eléctrico y de combustión), aunque eso ahora mismo es poco realista en el mercado de los scooter (éste va mucho más retrasado que el de los coches), y de pasar a la producción necesitarán motores más &#8220;terrenales&#8221;.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-837" title="Peugeot_HY3_EICMA_I" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/peugeot_hy3_eicma_i.jpg" alt="Peugeot_HY3_EICMA_I" width="510" height="304" /></span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><span style="font-weight:normal;"><span style="color:#000000;">E</span></span><span style="font-weight:normal;"><span style="color:#000000;">l problema es que para ello van a necesitar recurrir a algún fabricante externo, pero esta vez <strong>Piaggio</strong> no está dispuesta a venderles motores como sí lo ha hecho con otros modelos, como el <strong>Satelis</strong> o el <strong>Geopolis</strong>.</span></span> <span style="font-weight:normal;"><span style="color:#000000;">Hombre, no son idiotas. Si quieren copiarles, que se busquen la vida; es lógico.</span></span></span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><span style="font-weight:normal;"><span style="color:#000000;">Ya veremos cómo les sale el invento a los de <strong>Peugeot</strong>.</span></span></span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-839" title="Peugeot_HY3_EICMA_II" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/peugeot_hy3_eicma_ii.jpg" alt="Peugeot_HY3_EICMA_II" width="510" height="478" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">En el territorio de los modelos más &#8220;de andar por casa&#8221;, Peugeot presenta el <strong>Kisbee 50</strong>, un sencillo cicloscooter para la urbe, con motor de 4 tiempos refrigerado por aire y carburador con precalentamiento eléctrico. De planteamiento funcional y económico, este scooter con llantas de 12&#8243; estará a la venta muy pronto por tan sólo <strong>1.200 €</strong>.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-840" title="Peugeot_Kisbee_EICMA" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/peugeot_kisbee_eicma.jpg" alt="Peugeot_Kisbee_EICMA" width="510" height="598" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Y para amantes de la rueda alta llega este <strong>Twee</strong>t, en cilindradas de 50 y 125 c.c. Este modelo deriva del <strong>Sym Symphony</strong>, que también se vende en nuestro país (<strong>Sym</strong> y <strong>Peugeot</strong> tienen un acuerdo de colaboración). Los Tweet se sitúan en la gama media y económica de Peugeot, por debajo del <strong>LXR 125</strong>, también para uso eminentemente urbano y sin grandes alardes en nada salvo en economía de uso. </span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-841" title="Peugeot_Tweet_EICMA" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/peugeot_tweet_eicma.jpg" alt="Peugeot_Tweet_EICMA" width="510" height="270" /></span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">&#8212;</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">PIAGGIO:</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;"><strong>Una gran decepción.</strong> Si lo siguiente que vais a ver a continuación es todo lo que el gigante italiano de las dos ruedas puede ofrecer en el salón de su país, yo en su lugar no me gastaba el dinero en un <em>stand</em> y lo ahorraba para asegurar el sueldo de mis empleados.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Las novedades presentadas se limitan prácticamente a la familia <strong>MP3</strong>, que ha supuesto un considerable éxito teniendo en cuenta lo arriesgado de su propuesta. Así, a las versiones de 125, 250 y 400 se les une una <strong>nueva 500</strong>, con el conocido motor Master de la marca.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;"><img title="Piaggio_MP3_EICMA_III" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/piaggio_mp3_eicma_iii.jpg" alt="Piaggio_MP3_EICMA_III" width="510" height="460" /></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong><br />
</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Asímismo, se añade otra nueva variante, denominada <strong>500 Sport</strong>, que no es más que el <strong>Gilera Fuoco</strong>, que han decidido que pase a llevar el logo de <strong>Piaggio</strong>. Lo han decorado en tonos menos agresivos y a volar. </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;"><img title="Piaggio_MP3_EICMA_I" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/piaggio_mp3_eicma_i.jpg" alt="Piaggio_MP3_EICMA_I" width="510" height="466" /></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong><br />
</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Y, dentro de los <strong>MP3</strong>, en la gama de los <strong>LT</strong> (es decir, las variantes con ligeras modificaciones que les permiten ser conducidos por usuarios con el carnet B), el modelo de 250 pasa a adoptar el motor de 300 c.c. -278 en realidad- del grupo <strong>Piaggio</strong>. Además, el acelerador es ahora del tipo &#8220;ride by wire&#8221;, o sea, electrónico.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img title="Piaggio_MP3_EICMA_II" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/piaggio_mp3_eicma_ii.jpg" alt="Piaggio_MP3_EICMA_II" width="510" height="342" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Y la otra <em>súper novedad</em> de la marca es este horrendo &#8220;Vespino rossi&#8221;; se trata del nuevo <strong>Liberty Elle</strong> (como la famosa revista para mujeres) en 50 y 125 c.c. No tiene cambios respecto del <strong>Liberty</strong> original (el mismo que emplean en España muchos carteros) salvo esta dañina decoración a lo <strong>Barbie</strong> sólo apta para mujeres con mal gusto.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong><br />
</strong></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-845" title="Piaggio_Liberty_Elle_EICMA" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/piaggio_liberty_elle_eicma.jpg" alt="Piaggio_Liberty_Elle_EICMA" width="510" height="496" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Y ya está. Estas son las <em>espectaculares</em> novedades 2010 de <strong>Piaggio</strong>. ¿Donde está el sustituto del <strong>X9</strong>? ¿Dónde esté el rival del <strong>T-Max</strong>? ¿Qué ha sido de aquel proyecto de scooter de gran cilindrada?&#8230;. Lo dicho: <strong>yo para esto me quedaba en casa.</strong></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">&#8212;</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">SYM:</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Los taiwaneses de <strong>Sym</strong> aspiran a llegar lejos, como debe ser. Prueba de ello es que tienen unos productos con una muy buena relación calidad/precio y que, ahora, empiezan a plantar cara en cilindradas elevadas, que es el gran reto de cualquier fabricante que se precie.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Así pues, la nueva apuesta de la marca son los <strong>Maxsym 400/600</strong>, grandes megascooter de cuyos motores no sabemos aún nada, salvo que serán monocilíndricos 4T.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-846" title="SYM_Maxsym_EICMA_I" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/sym_maxsym_eicma_i.jpg" alt="SYM_Maxsym_EICMA_I" width="510" height="617" /></span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><span style="font-weight:normal;"><span style="color:#000000;">D</span></span><span style="font-weight:normal;"><span style="color:#000000;">esafortunadamente, aún hay algo que les falla gravemente a los chicos de <strong>Sym,</strong> y es el diseño, porque desde luego este <strong>Maxsym</strong> es una copia descarada y desafortunada del <span style="color:#000000;"><strong>Suzuki Burgman 650</strong></span>. Creo que esto no era necesario para tener éxito, y más cuando, por ejemplo, el <strong>Sym GTS </strong>(un modelo anterior de la marca) destacaba por su originalidad.</span></span></span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><span style="font-weight:normal;"><span style="color:#000000;">En fin, esperaremos a conocer cómo van estos dos nuevos buques de largo recorrido.</span></span></span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-847" title="SYM_Maxsym_EICMA_II" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/sym_maxsym_eicma_ii.jpg" alt="SYM_Maxsym_EICMA_II" width="510" height="323" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Y otro ejemplo de por qué el equipo de diseño de <strong>Sym</strong> necesita una renovación, es el siguiente modelo: el <strong>Cevalo 125</strong>. Se trata de una motocicleta <em>naked </em>de marchas 4T para el carnet A1.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-848" title="SYM_Cevalo_EICMA_I" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/sym_cevalo_eicma_i.jpg" alt="SYM_Cevalo_EICMA_I" width="510" height="545" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Se nota de dónde han ido sacando la inspración para crear cada una de sus partes pero les ha salido una cosa muy extraña: el faro es muy <strong>Fazer</strong>, los laterales son típicos de la <strong>ER-6</strong>, las llantas recuerdan vagamente a las de la <strong>Honda CB 1000</strong>&#8230;</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-849" title="SYM_Cevalo_EICMA_II" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/sym_cevalo_eicma_ii.jpg" alt="SYM_Cevalo_EICMA_II" width="510" height="318" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">El motor es de nueva generación, no compartido por otros modelos de marchas de la marca: un 125 c.c. de 4T, SOHC, 4 válvulas, refrigeración por aire y alimentación por inyección electrónica, con unos <strong>15 C.V.</strong> declarados (aunque dudo mucho que los alcance). Además, tiene buenos detalles como el tablero digital con indicador de marcha engranada y nivel de combustible.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">En definitiva, un modelo que será asequible y con <em>look</em> moderno para quien no quiera gastarse mucho dinero.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-850" title="SYM_Cevalo_EICMA_III" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/sym_cevalo_eicma_iii.jpg" alt="SYM_Cevalo_EICMA_III" width="510" height="325" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Eso sí, que cambien al equipo de diseño <strong>YA</strong>, por favor.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">&#8212;</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">TRIUMPH:</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Los británicos de <strong>Triumph</strong> no llevaron ninguna novedad al salón. Se limitaron a mostrar nuevas decoraciones para sus modelos, como la de la <strong>Bonneville</strong> bajo estas líneas o la de la reciente <strong>Thunderbird 1600</strong> (foto inferior)</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-856" title="Triumph_Bonneville_EICMA" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/triumph_bonneville_eicma.jpg" alt="Triumph_Bonneville_EICMA" width="510" height="400" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">También se llevó una <strong>Speed Triple</strong> <strong>SE</strong> cargadita de todos los extras imaginables (cúpula, suspensiones y frenos nuevos, escape <strong>Arrow</strong> 3-en-1, decoración bitono&#8230;).</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-857" title="Triumph_Speed_triple_EICMA" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/triumph_speed_triple_eicma.jpg" alt="Triumph_Speed_triple_EICMA" width="510" height="390" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">La <strong>Thunderbird 1600</strong> también recibe nuevos extras dsponibles, como el kit <strong>&#8220;Big Bore&#8221;</strong> de potenciación del motor con nuevos pistones, árboles de levas, muelles de embrague, que sitúan su cilindrada en 1.700 c.c. Con el mismo instalado, la potencia pasa a ser de <strong>97 C.V.</strong></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-858" title="Triumph_Thunderbird_1600_EICMA" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/triumph_thunderbird_1600_eicma.jpg" alt="Triumph_Thunderbird_1600_EICMA" width="510" height="288" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Por último, también estuvo presente en Milán la nueva <strong>Rocket III Roadster</strong>, de la que ya hablé anteriormente. Y, dado que no hay ninguna información nueva sobre ella, os remito al siguiente enlace: <strong><a href="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/2009/09/29/nueva-triumph-rocket-iii-roadster/" target="_blank"><span style="color:#ff6600;">Triumph Rocket III Roadster</span></a></strong>.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">&#8212;</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">VESPA:</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Por último nos queda la legendaria <strong>Vespa</strong>, que en esta ocasión cambia de decoración en su modelo de mayor cilindrada (300), y pasa a llamarse <strong>Super Sport</strong>.</span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-859" title="Vespa_Super_300_EICMA_I" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/vespa_super_300_eicma_i.jpg" alt="Vespa_Super_300_EICMA_I" width="510" height="345" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Los cambios afectan a la coloración de los amortiguadores, ahora en rojo; una nueva pintura en gris titanio, el asiento con tapizado retro y ribeteado en blanco, y el cuadro de instrumentos con fondo negro y dígitos en blanco. Todo ello enfocado a remarcar un espíritu ligeramente deportivo, aunque todos sabemos que una <strong>Vespa</strong> nunca podrá ser muy deportiva, salvo que no le tengas miedo a la muerte&#8230;</span></p>
<p>El motor sigue siendo el mismo de antes: modelo <strong>Quasar</strong> de 300 c.c. inyectado, un monocilíndrico 4T refrigerado por agua SOHC 4V capaz de ofrecer 22,4 C.V.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-860" title="Vespa_Super_300_EICMA_II" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/vespa_super_300_eicma_ii.jpg" alt="Vespa_Super_300_EICMA_II" width="510" height="497" /></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Finalmente, también fue presentada la <strong>Vespa LX ¿Touring?</strong> Sí, Touring. No está muy claro qué tipo de turismo se puede hacer en un vehículo así, sobre todo cuando sabemos que sólo estará disponible en 50 y 125 c.c. Hombre, con mucha paciencia&#8230;</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Las particularidades de esta versión son: pintura marrón metalizada, asiento en piel sintética a juego, 2 transportines cromados y una pequeña pantalla derivabrisas.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;"><strong>¡Qué fácil es crear nuevos modelos con cuatro chorradillas! </strong></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-861" title="Vespa_Touring_EICMA" src="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/vespa_touring_eicma.jpg" alt="Vespa_Touring_EICMA" width="510" height="559" /></span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">&#8212;</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Y aquí acaba todo.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Me han faltado algunas cosas, pero poco dignas de mención. <strong>Suzuki</strong> también estuvo en el salón, pero sólo llevó la nueva <strong><a href="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/2009/09/12/novedades-suzuki-2010-bandit-1250/" target="_blank"><span style="color:#ff6600;">Bandit 1250</span></a></strong>, de la que ya hablé anteriormente. Este año, <strong>Suzuki</strong> se lleva el premio a la más absoluta falta de actividad. ¿Dónde demonios está ese proyecto de <strong><a href="http://ikarusbikes.wordpress.com/2009/09/01/rumores-¿nueva-suzuki-gsr-250500/" target="_blank"><span style="color:#ff6600;">GSR 500/250</span></a></strong> tan adecuado a los tiempos que corren?</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;"><strong>Harley</strong> <strong>Davidson</strong> también llevó su gama 2010, pero ya la conocemos desde el verano, y <strong>Rieju</strong> estuvo con su nueva <strong>RS3</strong>, pero no encuentro ni una miserable imagen decente de ella. Y como son tan cutres que ni siquiera se dignan a actualizar su página web incluyéndola, pues les he &#8220;castigado&#8221; obviándoles. Hay que moverse, señores, que luego decimos que no se vende&#8230; y la culpa es de los demás.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Ha sido, sin lugar a dudas, <strong>el salón de la moto más aburrido que recuerdo </strong>en muchos años. De verdad que no le encuentro el sentido a organizar uno, con la de tiempo y dinero que conlleva, para hacer esto. Estoy convencido de que así no es rentable.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Tampoco puedo entender por qué, dada la situación del mercado, no se lanzan modelos de baja cilindrada (de 250 a 500 c.c.) sencillos, fiables y económicos, como lo fueron antaño la <strong>Suzuki GS 500</strong>, la <strong>Kawasaki Er-5 </strong>y <strong>KLE 500</strong>, la <strong>Yamaha Virago 535</strong>, la <strong>Honda CBF 500</strong>, etc&#8230; A veces me pregunto qué demonios hacen en los departamentos de desarrollo de producto de las marcas de motos. </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Será la crisis o será lo que quieran, pero se ha vuelto a demostrar una vez más que la industria del motociclismo está a años luz de la del automóvil. Ojalá el año que viene empiece a cambiar la tendencia.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">Así que, ya lo sabéis: en 2010 vais a comprar&#8230;. <strong>¡las motos de 2009!</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;"><strong>Feliz compra.</strong></span></p>

<description><![CDATA[The last few days in Italy were action-packed! Let&#8217;s see, where did we last leave off? On Sund]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>The last few days in Italy were action-packed! Let&#8217;s see, where did we last leave off?</p>
<p>On Sunday morning, the toddler and I took another spin around the supermarket of the gods to stock up for our last few days of supplies. After, we lunched at a place in the shopping center called “Risto.” I&#8217;ve walked by Risto a few times and was intrigued. As it turns out, Risto is like a very upscale cafeteria, Italian-style. Yummy! It has the first salad bar I&#8217;ve seen maybe ever in Europe, along with a whole handful of hot-food stations. Panini, pasta, soups, cheeses; you name it, they had it. And it was BUSY.</p>
<p>I loaded up a big bowl of salad, and not just any salad. This bar offered some definitely Italian ingredients you don&#8217;t find just anywhere – radicchio, endive, sliced fennel, cannellini beans&#8230; good stuff! The toddler and I grabbed a table and a rare high chair to enjoy. It was a great little find. And as we were eating, an old Italian man passed our table and, best I could understand, told me that my son is a very lucky little boy. NICE! I think I&#8217;m liking Italy more all the time.</p>
<p>Dinner at Il Pavone again Sunday night&#8230; hubby wrapped up at his show at a decent hour and we had a celebratory supper with his colleague to enjoy. Although I had pledged to try not to order the same thing twice, the fusilli della casa sang its siren call to me and I was happy to answer. A side plate of steamed spinach with a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkling of parmesan made the perfect accompaniment. Hubby got pizza and pasta, and his colleague put us all to shame by ordering vegetable soup; an outstandingly huge bowl of seafood pasta loaded with mussels, clams and langostine; AND a pizza. Which he couldn&#8217;t finish.</p>
<p>When I was in Cologne, my Hoosier laundry comrade Jerry had suggested I try some limoncello in Italy. Remembering that I hadn&#8217;t yet done so, I asked Maria if she had some. Happily, the answer was yes. Out of the freezer came a tall bottle of the lemon liqueur and three chilled shot glasses shaped like little boots. Not sure what the significance of the boot was, but it sure made for an adorable presentation. She filled them up, we toasted to Jerry and sipped. The shot tasted like a lemon drop martini, a very sweet and puckery frosty lemonade with a serious kick. YUMMY. I can&#8217;t believe I waited until this late in the week to discover this little gem.</p>

<p>Monday was our one and only road trip, and although I was disappointed in the lack of beautiful Italian countryside I was hoping for, the stops more than made up for it. We grabbed a quick breakfast at the hotel and then set out on our big adventure.  Hubby did all the driving, thank God, because I never could have navigated the Milan traffic and gotten us out in one piece.</p>
<p>We stopped in Parma, home of Parma ham and a beautiful little town in its own right, and ditched the car to take a quick look around. We strolled past a picturesque cathedral and piazza, then onto what seemed to be the main shopping street. It was getting toward lunchtime, so we found a cute little cafe and ducked inside. A counter full of delicious-looking sandwiches served us well. I ate a fabulous wedge of rosemary-and-tomato-studded focaccia topped with a few thin slices of proscuitto crudo. Simple and wonderful.</p>
<p>The cafe housed a series of spinning hot chocolate machines just inside the front door that looked like something out of Willy Wonka. Clearly, I couldn&#8217;t say no. After my sandwich, I ordered a cup. It was insanely rich, like drinking warm melted chocolate pudding. Oh my goodness. I couldn&#8217;t even finish it. Seriously, you could serve this stuff as fondue.</p>
<div id="attachment_552" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://zenfoodist.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/13047_174910516900_584021900_3398217_924639_n.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-552" title="13047_174910516900_584021900_3398217_924639_n" src="http://zenfoodist.wordpress.com/files/2009/11/13047_174910516900_584021900_3398217_924639_n.jpg?w=300" alt="" width="300" height="199" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">magical hot chocolate machines in Parma</p></div>
<p>After lunch, we hit the rest of the drive through some side roads and vineyards (I believe this is Chianti territory), past the Ferrari factory in Maranello, and then on to Ducati near Bologna. For the non-sports oriented, Ducati makes the crème de la crème of two-wheelers. Hubby calls it the Ferrari of motorcycles. As the whole reason for our being here was a motorcycle exposition, it seemed the perfect way to cap off our trip to Italy.</p>
<p>We signed in at the gate and were met by our lovely tour guide, Violetta. She proceeded to give us a very informative and interesting walk through the top-secret factory (every single piece of these bikes is assembled by hand – no wonder the price tag!). The adjacent museum reminded me a little of the one at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, housing motorcycles through the years along with info on when and where they raced, along with a whole wall of trophies. I&#8217;m not really a motorcycle fan, but I still found the whole thing pretty cool. The toddler, on the other hand, though he&#8217;d died and gone to heaven! He ran riot through the whole place from one exhibit to another, purring motorcycles noises the entire time. Hubby and his colleague were as happy as two little boys on Christmas morning.</p>
<p>The journey back to Milan was fast, and uneventful, thank God, in spite of hubby&#8217;s pedal-to-the-metal driving style and a close call on the autostrade. I tried not to pay too much attention from the backseat. I think he said he averaged something like 98 mph the whole way. Not bad for a rental car.</p>
<p>Our last Milano supper took place, where else, at Il Pavone. Hubby ordered his favorite pizza salami, and I had a fresh mixed salad and a sizzling platter of sliced steak topped with mushrooms. Mm, mm good.</p>
<p>PDAs are de rigeur here in Italy. This is the land of amore, I suppose, but these people don&#8217;t just do a quick peck on the cheek, they nearly devour each other. I&#8217;ve seen quite a few couples out and about this week (of all ages mind you, not just the teenage variety) engaged in serious clinches. At the tram stop downtown, one such duo had their tongues so far down each other&#8217;s throats, I wanted to slip them a handful of euros and tell them to get a room.</p>
<p>With that said, I was ready to give Milan a big, sloppy, wet kiss and say ciao, baby. After a nine-hour flight to New York, a three-hour layover, a 90-minute flight to Indy and a 45-minute taxi ride, we finally arrived home. Not that I haven&#8217;t solidly enjoyed our trip and the food that it entailed, but I&#8217;m in the mood to cook up some of the most un-Italian dishes I can think of for the next few days. Chicken stir-fry, here I come!</p>
